WNMG060412-MM5 WSM30S indexable turning insert – Tiger·tec Silver, for stainless steel and superalloys (Walter Tools)

WNMG060412-MM5 WSM30S is a coated carbide turning insert designed for heavy-duty and demanding materials, offering a stable cutting edge and optimised chip control for stainless steels and heat-resistant alloys

• Tiger·tec Silver coated carbide
• MM5 chipformer for consistent chip control
• Trigon 80° shape for robust engagement
• Suitable for stainless steel and superalloys

Proven grade for demanding materials and high temperatures

The WSM30S grade, part of the Tiger·tec Silver family, combines a wear-resistant coating with a tough substrate to support machining of stainless steel and other difficult-to-cut alloys. The coated carbide composition ensures improved heat resistance and a predictable tool life under elevated cutting temperatures. With the MM5 chipformer, the insert promotes controlled chip formation, reducing the risk of built-up edge and improving surface finish consistency even in challenging feed and speed regimes.

Geometry engineered for stability and heavy cuts

A Trigon 80° profile and a 1.2 mm corner radius deliver high stability at the cutting edge, enabling secure entry and sustained performance during interrupted cuts or deep turning operations. The 0° relief angle (negative) increases the effective cross section of the insert, improving strength where rigidity and edge security are priorities. These geometry choices translate into fewer insert changes and a more predictable machining process in production environments.

Process benefits: productivity, surface quality and repeatability

Designed for industrial turning applications, this insert supports higher process reliability and constant results across batches. The combination of coating technology and geometry provides good chip control, extended edge life and consistent surface quality on challenging materials classified under ISO groups M and S. For workshops seeking economical productivity gains, the insert contributes to lower overall tooling costs through longer intervals between replacements and reduced rework.
